Abstract: Removal of SO2 and NOx from combustion flue gases is effected to be subjected to irradiation by an electron beam and to the action of microwaves applied in the form of a continuous and/or pulsed stream. The stream of flue gases irradiated by the electron beam in the radiation zone is subjected to the action of microwave energy in the whole cross section of the stream of the flue gases. This results in a decrease in the dose rate "average power of the electron beam" and a reduction in the costs of accelerators while retaining the same removal efficiency. Further, the apparatus for removal of SO2 and NOx from combustion flue gases is provided in a radiation process in which a stream of accelerated electrons and microwave energy are used simultaneously.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for exerting a holding pressure on injection moulding materials in an injection moulding machine having an injection mould and a screw connected thereto via feed channels. To ensure the sensitive exertion of a holding pressure on homogeneous injection moulding material using simple means, the following steps are carried out: During the filling of the injection mould, the melt flows from the screws to the cavity; at the end of the filling operation, the melt flow is cut off in the vicinity of the screw orifice; during the material shrinkage phase, the volume loss is compensated for by the replenishment in the feed channel between the screw and the cavity; after completion of the cooling phase of the injection moulding material, the coherent melt flow of the plastic material in the cavity is separated from those in the feed channel; with adaptation of the melt pressure in the feed channel to the melt pressure in the screw, the shut-off to the screw is opened again and the material, forming a coherent melt flow again, is released to the feed channel; the melt flow to the feed channel is released again for the unhindered injection process without interruption of the melt strand.

Abstract: In a control system (10) for a turbine engine having a variable geometry air compressor, a valve arrangement responsive to a first operational pressure differential created between a discharge fluid pressure produced by the air compressor and an environmental fluid pressure for controlling the communication of a first fluid pressure to an actuator assembly (50) which responds to a second operational pressure differential created across a piston (168) between the first fluid pressure and a second fluid pressure produced through a modification of the discharge fluid pressure. The second fluid pressure being developed by compressor discharge fluid pressure flowing from a blind bore (184) in a shaft (178) through a variable opening to one side of the piston while at the same time fluid pressure flows through a restriction to the surrounding environment. The resulting second pressure differential acts on the piston (168) to provide the shaft (178) with a force which is communicated through linkage to linearly change the shape of a variable area geometry device of the air compressor.

Abstract: An ink jet head includes a substrate on which a plurality of energy generating elements for generating energy utilized to discharge ink are provided, and a wall member joined to the substrate. The wall member has a plurality of flow passage walls which partially define flow passages, and the energy generated by the energy generating element acts through the flow passage so as to act on the ink to discharge the ink. The flow passages are fully defined when the substrate is joined to the wall member. A recessed portion provided in the substrate of the ink jet head is positioned between adjoining energy generating elements. The recessed portion has a bottom surface located at a position which is lower than a position for a heat acting surface of the substrate along which heat is transmitted to the ink. The flow passage walls of the wall member abut the substrate at the bottom surface. Consequently, any pressure wave generated by the energy generating element is not released to an adjacent flow passage, and crosstalk between the adjoining flow passages can be prevented. As a result, an ink jet head exhibiting excellent printing quality can be provided. <IMAGE>
